Deep words, my man, deep words.

Scrypt.cc doing all that mining they've sold you 'KHS' for yet?

Didn't think so.

Oh the sock-puppet 'mark coolers' are on a roll today!

Sure, it's all down to haxxors and 'other' people that scrypt.cc has been proven to not be mining as they claim their entire operation to be based on.

Seriously, I'm the bad guy? I despise crypto scammers because they make for tabloid-friendly anti-crypto headlines and, for spending a little time each day in making sure the 'mark coolers' can't keep burying the facts in this thread, that makes me a 'paid promoter' who is working against any of the companies that aren't paying me?

LOL. Yeah, sure, that sounds legit.



I believe we have a winner among the "because Shut up! That's why!" crowd.

@rrocket

Do you even read what you are posting? Scrypt.cc is the criminal enterprise at fault here and you are urging me to stop keeping their fraud front and center because, according to you, if I were a 'normal' person I would want people to be ripped off in crypto so I can make MOAR PROFETS!!!1!!!1!elebenty!!1!!

Again, how does that work? These scams take bitcoin off people and then eventually cash them out to run with the money, leaving behind a trail of devastated newbies who will spend the next few years telling everyone they know that cryptocurrency is nothing but an industry riddled with criminal activity.

How does that make anybody other than the scammers richer?

Indeed. One might suspect that it is their job to keep posting vapid 'mark cooling' bollocks such as, "Only invest what you can afford to lose" and the usual arse about 'gambling' etc. etc.

They are basically attempting to blame the mark for being too greedy while ignoring the criminal enterprise they are 'excusing'.

Absolutely, shills and fanboys often quote the longevity of this scam as though it magically makes it not a scam but the first year of operation is covered by just the first 36 pages of this thread.

This is what 'Marcello' posted in February after a year of scrypt.cc being essentially considered abandoned:

So, no, anyone who wants to revert to how long this shitshow has been running as some sort of 'evidence' in support of it needs to check their facts.

Yayyyy I get fan-mail!

For somebody who claims to be such a seasoned investor his last sentence betrays a lack of basic economic understanding.

That is exactly what they are counting on. The process known as, "Cooling the Mark" was mentioned earlier in the thread by Dooglus and it is precisely what happens with the way these scama 'exit' in order to ensure there is sufficient doubt as to who is at fault for the failure of the scam that people don't have the emotional motivation to pursue the scammers.

This is why most of them run with stories of being hacked.

LOL @Kitey. Fair play, I bow to your eloquence.

As for the idea of stopping people from gambling in a casino, why would we when both the Casino and the customer know the rules and the risks of the games they are playing because that is how a legal Casino has to operate.

Scrypt.cc is not a gamble because you are not playing a game with a known environment of rules, risks and returns. You are sending money to a group of scammers who lie to you about what they are doing with it and you pray that you'll not be one of the customers who gets their money stolen.

Here's the scoop, the MAJORITY of you will have your money stolen. That's a fact. These schemes are based on paying out the minimum to keep going until income stops being larger than outgoings. When that happens it is time to roll out another hacking story until they can exit stage left.

This is not at all equivalent to gambling.

Yeah I've noticed a lot of former Homero fanboys love themselves some DMD, too.

"Chief Visionary Officer" - That is so Homero a bullshit title.

Couple that in with a proof-reading fail on his banner (what is it with Garza-goons and their inability to use spellcheck?) and we've got all the fixings for the next rounds of, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me repeatedly with obvious-scam-is-obvious scams because apparently I get off on feelings of shame and self-loathing".

Did I make assertions implying I was speaking for everybody? No.


Talk shit? Again, please provide citation to support your claim that I 'attack' people and talk 'shit'.

These scams rely on social group manipulation, including the use of sock-puppet accounts in places such as this to try and bury posts which might alert the victims to the criminal nature of the scam. They will either be overtly defensive of the scheme, overtly aggressive towards those who post the harmful facts, or somewhere in between whereby they pretend to be a regular 'customer' who wants to ask a general question as though everything is fine and dandy and *not* a scam and, even if it is, then [insert vapid nonsense about gambling, risk taking, Wall St, I got my profit] etc. etc. When the content of a post continues to dishonestly imply that this operation is still worth continuing with, we like to make sure that the facts can show how absurd such claims are.


Again, which part of me telling you that the continued posting of facts exposing the criminally fraudulent nature of this scam is to ensure that OTHER victims of this fraud can be properly informed as to the realities of the situation, suggests that my posts are only directed at you?

What do you not get? We post because others may be wanting to learn more about the facts even this late in the scam because, let's not forget, scrypt.cc is STILL running its referral scheme in order to rope in more suckers. I, and others like me, keep these facts front and center so we can do our bit to try and stop these operations which damage cryptocurrency in general.

GAWminers were paying people to actively attack those who spoke negatively, they employed a team of people who were tasked with burying posts they didn't like and attempting to discredit those who had posted them. GAWminers then moved on to their obvious-ponzi-is-obvious 'Hashlet' product, which is the same thing as scrypt.cc's 'KHS', numbers on a screen with nothing behind them and further ramped up their anti-'FUD' tactics. 'FUD', of course being facts which were proving to show the operation as being scammy as hell until, eventually, the migration to 'XPY' Paycoin which was simply an out-and-out fraud built on promises and lies but, by then, all the 'good' customers were so in deep with Homero Josh Garza's promises to make them all rich, they became the fanboys and fangirls who did his dirty work for him.

So, no, 'because STFU!' isn't good enough a reason for me to stop posting about the fact that scrypt.cc is a criminal fraud.

Who elected you head of the Magoogles? Are you entitled to speak for every single scrypt.cc user now?

Thought not.

He's the thing, stop posting complaints to us about our facts and we'll stop replying to you. We will, however, continue to raise awareness among the forum community where possible to reach those people who still might not be aware of these facts, you know, in order to ensure they can make a fully informed decision seeing as scrypt.cc doesn't want them to.

You can catch up on the situation regarding cloudthink here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1074272.0

Risks of the game? Sure, what game we playing?

Care to enlighten us as to the rules and risks? Or by 'game' do you actually mean the process of sending your money to a provably fraudulent criminal operation and hoping that they don't steal it?

Doesn't seem like much of a game so much as wishful thinking.

Cloudthink, it is the only 'cloud mining' scheme of the two. Coinomat is a crypto<>fiat exchange.

I do find it rather sad how the most religious people here are the least likely to comprehend altruism for its own sake.

Just because it is your own money it does not mean I do not care that you are losing it. I might consider you to be something of a willfully ignorant dick, but I'd rather you keep your money and scrypt.cc do not.

Otherwise I and others like me would not be bothering to alert people to the facts of the scam.

Ok, whatever. I was just expressing concern for your well-being in that it read like you were considering taking your own life if you ended up losing your 'investment' with scrypt.cc

Good morning to you as well, although I'm a little concerned at your "Bye money, hello God" reference.

@yeponlyone

Do you not think it is somewhat inappropriate for you to be promoting a cloud mining scam in your avatar when you are posting in a thread dedicated to raising awareness of these scams?

Check the main English thread and you will see that most of the time it was considered near abandoned until 'Marcelo' mysteriously returned and claimed he had been in hospital but had now returned from travelling the world buying Scrypt miners and sold off 500Gh/s of Scrypt 'khs' to buyers.

Who, me?

BTW is anyone aware of other Non-English threads that are active with other scrypt.cc 'investors'?

I'd like to ask their opinion of my signature.

Don't want to leave people out when Google translate can have a go at helping them become fully informed, too.

LOL, yeah, we are doing scrypt.cc's job in making sure their 'investors' can make a fully informed decision.

If scrypt.cc would be willing to do it instead we'd not have to bother any more. Perhaps you could ask them to take over in informing their 'investors' of the actual facts?
